Re: [Networker] Cloning from adv-File let one copy stay there

I have a question related to the cloning process. We have several adv_files
where we would like to clone all older ssid's and let stay there one copy

(the newest) of the save set on the adv_file.

Our current script contains a statement like:

mminfo -q
"pool=DISKPOOL,copies<3,group=GROUP,totalsize>=10000000,written=0,!incomplete,!suspect"

With this statement we let two copies stay there. If I change the copies
count to 2 nothing will be selected. I know that there are always 2 copies
of a  saveset because of the RO device. How could I get only one copy of a
save set stay there? TIA

You can't. There aren't actually two clones of each save set on anadv_file device, they are simply two views of the same save set. This isjust the way NetWorker represents it. The data for both save sets is inthe same file on the disk and if you delete one you will also delete theother.
